Trix2themaxfitness Running Club
Welcome to Trix2themaxfitness Running Club!
Trix2themaxfitness will be holding 2 running routes in Hyde Park – 5km and 10km (see the map below) on weekends at 8.30am, starting Summer 2012.
The runs will be tracked using the Nike iPod application, which will record the time, calories burnt as well as the speed achieved.

Hyde Park has toilet and refreshment facilities, however we would advise clients to visit these before or after the run takes place.
A medical & lifestyle questionnaire session will be arranged with Cliff Johnson when you join the club.
With regards to the running kit, you do need a pair of shoes that is right for you and, if you are a woman, you need a proper sports bra.
We recommend clients to have running shoes rather than old trainers. Every runner is different in the way they run, and different running shoes are suitable for different running styles. Please visit www.shoeguide.co.uk for reviews and information about most running shoes on the market.
If you are interested in buying new shoes, we advise you to go to a specialist running shop where there will be an experienced shop assistant to watch you run in different models to see how they affect your running style.
Apart from shoes and a bra, all you need to run is a t-shirt, shorts and socks. If you are interested in technical shirts, names like "DriFit" from Nike or "ClimaCool" from Adidas would be suitable as they take water away from the skin, keeping it relatively dry. Technical gear is, however, expensive, and you most certainly do not need it at first. You might promise yourself a DriFit top when you run your first race!
